I did in store, pretty easy but a new trade in evaluation thing that's slightly annoying. Traded 2 s25 for one of each.
what's the new trade in evaluation process? They used to just take down the IMEI from you and that's it.

Scan a qr code to start a web based eval. Tests touchscreen, flashes colors and asks about spots, uses their mirror to take front and back pics with the phone camera and upload them to see if cracked.

doesn't take long but is slightly annoying the first time

Yea when I got the s25 back in March or April that's all they needed. I guess too many of them missed things and took in messed up tradeins

Yep, this happened to me today. It's part of the trade-in process on their terminal, and can't be skipped. The evaluation using a mirror is tied into the transaction process on the terminal. I asked him what happens if it fails the evaluation and he said he would not be able to complete the transaction. It's a very detailed software driven evaluation, and took about 3-5 minutes. Looking for dead pixels, camera quality, touch sensitivity, etc, etc..

He said they started using it a few weeks ago, probably in advance of the Samsung release. I suspect this is going to be a problem for some folks that have a phone with a defect. The days of just inputting the IMEI are over.

Was hoping someone in NY went today so we could find out about the tax. Has that changed as well as the trade in phone evaluation? Thanks

I sent my trade-in device and assurant received and confirmed, but they cancelled my Samsung z flip 7 fe due to credit card issues, will I get 705$ credit to my account?
No, you won't. They may send the device back. You may be in for a real headache.

just did a trade-in an hour ago for Flip 7. Traded in a StraighTalk Moto G Play that i bought from Walmart a week ago, no issues with the IMEI. New phone evaluation process that reps have to do, so don't factory reset the phone beforehand. Seems like they test the touch screen, cameras, phone condition, etc. Took a little bit longer than expected, seems like the rep who helped me was fairly new. But no issues.

They made me do the test myself, seemed like they hadn't done it many times before if at all.

I'm from New York and purchased the Flip 7 in store today. I traded in a S25 and paid $98, about $7 in tax.
